Abaton discontinued distribution of MultiTalk in late spring 1988. The
following is a brief description of MultiTalk and known incompatibilities:
DISCUSSION ------------------------------------
MultiTalk lets AppleTalk network users share serial devices. It has four
mini-circular-8 connectors: one for AppleTalk (RS-422) and three for RS-232.
The RS-232 connectors support modems, scanners, plotters, printers, or
protocol converters. The user can select from four ports when the modem port
is logically selected, and there can be up to four MultiTalks per zone.
MultiTalk is incompatible with MacLink Plus, Switcher (intermittent),
Telescape Pro.
MultiTalk fails to cause DTR to drop on disconnect when using VersaTerm.
